Chocolate Honeycomb Fudge

Over the past few weeks I've been looking at different recipes that would be good to give as gifts to the teachers at my daughter's school and my son's childcare centre. I wanted something that was delicious, but also easy to make and not needing cream or anything that was going to go off if it wasn't eaten quickly.

I came across this simple Chocolate and Malteser Fudge from Lauren at Create Bake Make and knew that I had to give it a go! Only 4 ingredients makes it perfect.

Instead of Maltesers, I decided to have a go with chocolate coated honeycomb instead. I smashed up my honeycomb and stirred it through the fudge mixture, rather than just pouring it over the top. I thought it would look much nicer this way and would have the honeycomb throughout the fudge, rather than just on top.

The end result was delicious! Of course, I had to trim off and try the wonky edges because I couldn't possibly give them away, could I!

If you like baking and all things sweet, then definitely look up Create Bake Make. So many wonderful ideas for cakes, biscuits, slices and other treats.

Now to get onto my other Christmas baking so it's ready to pack up for tomorrow.

Chocolate Honeycomb Fudge

200g block dark chocolate

200g block milk chocolate

1 tin condensed milk

200g packet chocolate coated honeycomb

Line an 18x28cm rectangular slice tin with baking paper so that it overhangs the sides.

Using a rolling pin, crush the honeycomb into medium sized chunks in the packet.

Break the chocolate into squares and place in a microwave safe bowl with the condensed milk.

Microwave in 30 second burst, stirring between each go to combine the chocolate and condensed milk.

Continue until the chocolate is all melted and the mixture is smooth when stirred. Mine took 4 goes.

Quickly stir through the honeycomb pieces until it is all combined and coated in the fudge mixture.

Pour into the tin and press to the edges and smooth the top.

Set in the fridge for a couple of hours or overnight.

Lift the slice out of the tin using the paper and cut into small squares with a sharp knife.

Give away as a present, wrapped in celophane with a Christmas ribbon or keep it as a treat for yourself :-)

Enjoy!
